15 Night British Isles & Norway Passage (Copenhagen To New York)

Sail date: September 11, 2015

Ship: Regal Princess

Cabin type: Balcony

Cabin number: B710

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 9 years ago

Review summary

The flagship of Princess, but the designer of this class of ship should be shot.

Way to many dead ends, no stairs, elevators that do not service all floors, Only a 900 seat theatre?? Balcony cabins are small and feel small! It is no wonder only 75% of the reviewers would recommend this ship.

Its new, very clean, lousy design!

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Outstanding storage, the most of any cabin ever. Room is cramped with just the bed or 2 chairs to sit on. While balcony is tiny, the two chairs and table are adequate.

Ship tip

The any time dining was well done, food was great.
